He's old now - maybe 90? He can't possibly still be flying,
so I can tell tales about him I heard from another pilot there.
Gerry's at an aerobatic contest. He's flying a single seat
Pitts with a 540. So he takes off, levels off at the surface,
pulls vertical at the end of the runway, does a half roll on
the vertical, and caps it with a gentle pull to inverted, and
flies away from the airport inverted.
Bunch of fucking 21st century babies and their hairy
"steep climbs" at Vx.
Try a Gerry departure, babies.
I thought his approach was wild. Straight in, ridiculously
high and 10,000 FPM sideslip descent.
